Statistical machine translation systems use a combination of one or more translation models and a language model. While there is a significant body of research addressing the improvement of translation models, the problem of optimizing language models for a specific translation task has not received much attention. Typically, standard word trigram models are used as an out-of-the-box component ...

In spoken language translation a machine translation system takes speech as input and translates it into another language. A standard machine translation system is trained on written language data and expects written language as input. In this paper we propose an approach to close the gap between the output of automatic speech recognition and the input of machine translation by training the tra...

1. introduction in recent years, thanks to efforts made by such scholars as maria tymoczko, translation studies has started a movement towards reacting to euro-centrism in the discipline. the movement stresses the necessity for internationalization of translation theory and the significance of taking into account translation traditions all over the world. the authors of the present paper do bel...

The demonstration of our system addresses one very important part of the translation business – the localization of texts and programs from one source language into a group of mutually related target languages. It shows step by step a simple method of machine translation between related languages and its incorporation into an existing commercial translation aid using the concept of translation ...

Machine translation system is software designed that essentially takes a text in one language (called the source language) and translates it into another language (called the target language). This paper presents the state of the art in the field of machine translation. First part of this paper discusses the machine translation systems for non-Indian languages and second part discusses the mach...
